Boost Your Balance
Physical Therapist and National Director of Balance Center Programs for FYZICAL Brian Werner suggests that balance is “a cornerstone of fitness and has a direct link to our physical and emotional well-being.” To achieve better balance, take time to work on it and pay attention to weak spots, vary your physical activity, and get regular eye check-ups since ocular health plays a big role in overall balance.

Go Upside-Down
NASM-certified Personal Trainer and Pilates Pro-Works Instructor Stephanie Dale has an interesting tip: “Spend a little time upside-down. Think of your upper body as a coat-hanger for your intestines. Inverting can lower your resting heart rate, strengthen your diaphragm — which can improve lung function — and reduce stress. Inversions (headstands/handstands) will teach you how to engage deep abdominal muscles that help support your spine (which comes in handy for lifts).”
